    baptist college of health sciences is a private institution of higher learning with small classroom settings, a strong religious background, and excellent bsn programs. baptist offers programs in 7 majors including nursing, sonography, radiology, and respiratory therapy, with nursing being the larger program. baptist is a great college with many resources and available assistance to help students succeed and improve in their courses and majors.

    Tips for prospective students

    if you like a small classroom setting with more one-on-one interaction with the instructor, an institution where your religious preferences are respected, and want to pursue your bachelors in nursing, then baptist college of health sciences is the college for you!

    Academic Rigor

    with an instructor being more interactive in the classroom, students can be more successful and achieve in their courses and majors. students can't receive a grade no lower than a c, which is doable.

    Dorm Life

    we do have reasonable dorms at baptist, mainly for students who didn't previously live in memphis or just prefer to stay on campus to maintain focus.

    Food and Dining

    right now in the process, baptist is receiving vending machines that will contain fresh foods, fruits, and vegetables that will be changed and replaced on a weekly basis. we don't have as many dining options like other colleges or universities, but it will still be enjoyable to attend the college.

    What to do for fun

    although baptist is a relatively small campus, we still have events that occur on a weekly basis. we have events to occur such as basketball tournaments, weight loss competitions, family day, a racket ball room, a pool, to name a few.

    Bang for the buck

    baptist's yearly tuition is less expensive then your average college or university, around $11,000 a year, including the summer trimester. you can also get 100% financial aid to pay for all your books and fees. how awesome is that!

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    every year around february or march, baptist has a spiritual renewal week that will help students renew or refresh their minds during the second trimester of school, which is considered the most difficult or hardest trimester of the year.

    Great for these types of students

    I enjoy attending this college because the teachers, staff, and students are friendly and caring. The dorm life is simple, yet enjoyable and feels like a second home. Lastly, this college expects its students to take responsibility for learning so that they can become excellent healthcare professionals.

    Tips for prospective students

    Studying is important in order to be successful at this college. Also, living in the dorms is highly convenient because you will almost always have a quiet place to study, you are a trolley ride away from Beale and Main Street, and you will have more opportunities to be involved in student life on campus.

    Academic Rigor

    The teachers expect you to read the textbook and study. As you progress through the classes, tests may eventually contain over 10 chapters at a time, from what I hear.

    Dorm Life

    There is no cafeteria, so expect to do your own grocery shopping and learn how to cook using a microwave, crock pot, George Foreman grill, and oven. Each room fits two people and includes a bunk bed, desk area, shared balcony, and a walk in closet that leads to the bathroom. The rooms are comfortable to live in by yourself or with a roommate.

    Food and Dining

    This school does not have a cafeteria. However, there are vending machines in all of the buildings and some food in the bookstore.

    What to do for fun

    There are a few events to attend each week on campus, plus a swimming pool, gym, and student lounge with a TV, pool table, and ping pong table. Students can ride the trolley down town or visit the many strip malls and restaurants on Popular or Union Ave.

    Bang for the buck

    Considering that this private school costs slightly more than University of Memphis, the closest public university, it is worth attending a college that actually cares about its students' welfare. Also, this college is notorious in the Memphis metro area for its graduates, and you will easily be able to find a job within the Baptist hospital system since the hospital and college are related.

    Great for these types of students

    If you belong to the Christian faith, or are looking into the Christian faith, this school is definitely worth attending because the teachers will understand your faith-based viewpoints.
    This school only contains healthcare bachelors degrees, so anyone seriously looking into the healthcare field should look into this college.

    Clubs and Activities

    OASIS- helps out with Freshman and transfer orientations
    BASIC- Christian faith-based group
    CARE- community service group involved in volunteer activities

    Greek Life

    You have to option to join the Greek life at the University of Memphis.

    Campus Safety

    The entire main campus is gated in and contains security cameras throughout. Other buildings not located on campus require a badge in order to enter the building. Security guards circulate around campus and do routine checks around campus at night.
